I have a samall garden where I have eggplants. I have it fenced by a
bird-netting fencing. The net is firmly stapled to the ground. I
noticed
that something was eating my eggplants and sweet pepper plants at the
rate of two per day(even with the net around). I thought it was the
birdy doing it, so I covered it from above with a bird netting. Still
I
found my plants eaten. I found a hole at one end of the netting(could
have been there before), so reinforced it. Still someone ate the
plants.
One day hubby saw a tiny-rabbit getting in the garden and destroying a
plant and leave!
Someone told us that if we sprayed Habernero peppers water, rabbit
will
not bother the plants. But even after spraying peppers water, I have
missing plants!! The rabbit is essentially breaking the plant in two
halves!
How do I prevent any further casualties? I have already lost about
12plants!!
I have been using fox urine around my plants.

Where do you get the fox urine? Also, will it be re-sprinkled after the
rain?
I don't have to sprinkle after rain, it is good for a month. I got mine
discounted on eBay through Ace Hardware because I wanted a bunch of it.
I also order most of my garden products from this place:

I got it recommended to me last year from someone in the group and have
found it an excellent alternative to chemicals.
